Manchester City are pushing to close a deal for Estudiantes midfielder Joaquin Correa.

The Daily Star Sunday says City are chasing Argentina midfielder Joaquin Correa who has an £8million buy-out clause in his Estudiantes contract.

Correa, 20, who was in Italy last week seeking an EU permit, is also wanted by Inter Milan and Monaco.

He will be loaned to Sampdoria if he arrives in next month's transfer window.

He is described as similar in style to City star David Silva.
